Chemical Abundances of Young Massive Clusters in NGC 1313∗
The Astronomical Journal, 2022 Abstract We analyze spectroscopic observations of five young massive clusters (YMCs) in the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1313 to obtain detailed abundances from their integrated light. Our sample of YMCs was observed with the X-shooter spectrograph on the Very Large Telescope.

An HST Study of the Substellar Population of NGC 2024
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We performed an HST/WFC3-IR imaging survey of the young stellar cluster NGC 2024 in three filters probing the 1.4 μ m H _2 O absorption feature, characteristic of the population of low-mass and substellar-mass objects down to a few Jupiter masses.

NGC 3603 — a Local Template for Massive Young Clusters [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2002 We present a study of the star cluster associated with the massive Galactic HII region NGC 3603 based on near-IR broad- and narrowband observations taken with ISAAC/VLT under excellent seeing conditions (≤ 0.4″). We discuss color-color diagrams and address the impact of the high UV flux on the disk evolution of the low-mass stars.

New Candidate Massive Clusters from 2MASS [PDF]
, 2013 Massive stars are important for the evolution of the interstellar medium. The detailed study of their properties (such as mass loss, rotation, magnetic fields) is enormously facilitated by samples of these objects in young massive galactic star clusters.

Observational Evidence of the Merging of Filaments and Hub Formation in G083.097+03.270
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We uncover a hub–filament system correlated with massive young stellar associations in G083.097+03.270. Diagnosed with simultaneous ^12 CO, ^13 CO, and C ^18 O line observations, the region is found to host two distinct and elongated filaments having ...

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractOver the past ten years, there has been a revolution in our understanding of massive young stellar clusters in the Galaxy. Initially, there were no known examples having masses >104, yet we now know that there are at least a half dozen such clusters in the Galaxy.

Phenomenological description of young massive star clusters [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceMost of the massive stars appear grouped in giant molecular clouds. Their strong wind activity generates large structures known as super bubbles and induces collective effects which could accelerate particles up to high energy and ...

Structural Properties of Massive Young Clusters [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2001 We have retrieved multicolor WFPC2/HST data from the STScI archive for 27 nearby Massive (>= 3x10^4 M_Sun) Young (< 20 Myr) star Clusters (MYCs). The data represents the most-complete-to-date sample of clearly resolved MYCs. We have analyzed their structural properties and have found that they can be classified as either Super Star Clusters (SSCs)
